Man Is Told He Was in a Coma for 12 Years, Later Finds Out It Was a Ruse His Wife Planned — Story of the Day

Jerome Smith was a workaholic, neglecting his wife Caroline and their son, Robert. His obsession with work and frequent drunk driving terrified Caroline, but he ignored her concerns.

One day, Jerome had a minor car accident, landing him unconscious in the hospital. Seizing the opportunity, Caroline, with the help of her doctor friend, staged an elaborate ruse. When Jerome woke up, the doctor told him he had been in a coma for 12 years. Caroline, disguised with makeup to appear older, played along, telling Jerome that Robert had died in the accident.

Devastated and believing he had lost his son, Jerome was overwhelmed with guilt. However, Caroline soon revealed the truth: Robert was alive, and the coma story was a lesson to show Jerome the consequences of his actions.

Realizing his mistakes, Jerome apologized and promised to change. He stopped drinking, reduced his work hours, and prioritized his family. The incident profoundly changed him, and when Caroline announced her pregnancy months later, Jerome vowed to be the best father to their new baby.

Jerome and Caroline are now happier, with Jerome fulfilling his promise to be a better husband and father.
